Understanding Human Trafficking
Hours: 1.00
Human trafficking is a significant issue in the U.S. and worldwide. Human trafficking victims are often concealed by their traffickers; however, studies show that many victims interact with healthcare professionals while they are being victimized. This places healthcare professionals in a unique position to recognize the signs and risk factors of human trafficking and take steps if they suspect a person may be a victim of human trafficking.
The goal of this course is to provide healthcare staff with critical steps to recognize and respond to human trafficking.
